To determine which scatterplot shows a linear association, we need to create scatterplots for each set of data.
Scatterplot 1:
x: 5.0, 4.6, 8.5, 5.9, 7.8, 5.3, 7.0, 7.2
y: 12.0, 9.0, 15.0, 11.0, 13.0, 8.0, 14.5, 10.0
Scatterplot 2:
x: 5.0, 4.6, 8.5, 7.8, 6.4, 6.8, 7.0, 7.2
y: 3.7, 2.7, 6.5, 2.0, 5.6, 3.0, 7.8, 6.7
Scatterplot 3:
x: 5.0, 4.6, 8.5, 7.8, 6.8, 5.3, 7.0, 7.2
y: 12.0, 8.5, 6.0, 10.0, 12.0, 10.0, 12.0, 10.0
Scatterplot 4:
x: 5.0, 4.6, 5.9, 7.8, 6.4, 6.8, 5.3, 7.2
y: 9.5, 9.0, 11.0, 13.0, 11.5, 12.0, 10.0, 12.5
Based on the data provided, Scatterplot 4 shows a linear association, as the points form a line that shows a clear relationship between the x and y values.
